Hi:
I am wondering if anyone has any experience with using bigfoot with Hebrew.
(1) In an english document I can have many levels of footnotes, I can label
the footnotes in the standard way, and reference them both in the main text
and footnotes.
However, in a Hebrew document, the footnotes references (whether in the
main text or referred to in a footnote) seem to always refer to the last
footnote number. Especially where we use "alh", i.e. the footnote number is
in the Hebrew alphabet.
\DeclareNewFootnote[para]{A}[alph]
An example is provided below where
(\ref{fa1})
(\ref{fa2})
(\ref{fa3})
are all typeset as (ג) -- i.e. as the 3rd letter of the Hebrew alphabet.
(2) I also note that the apparatus
\DeclareNewFootnote[para]{B}[arabic]
prints in a right to left order, rather than a left to right order.
What I am hoping to have is three levels of footnotes, each with a
different marker (e.g. alph, arabic, roman) so that they are easily
distinguishable.
I imagine that I am not using polyglossia or bigfoot properly. Any help
would be appreciated.
If there is an alternative package that works with polyglossia/Hebrew that
would also be appreciated.
Thanks
Jon
